It's Official - I can't hang with the big dogs but it's ok. :)

So today I attended a lovely Wednesday Garage Sale. I have been drooling over the ad in the paper since Monday. It started at 8:30 so I arrive at 7:45 just to scope it out and see the parking situation. I am usually not an early bird but this one sounded amazing. I didn't leave my car until 8:15 because I hate to be the pushy one.
I was not the only one who was ready for the sale! Many of the other local vendors and shop owners were there with their combat gear on (I kid)! It was so fun to watch them work. As soon as the gates opened, the craziness started. There was running and pushing and slapping post-its on things. These ladies were out for blood...or at least a really cool primitive table. I tried to find items and watch them at the same time. I think I did more watching because I was in total awe of them but I did ok. :) Here are the items I purchased today and a few from last weekend.

I LOVE mirrors. I am excited to see what becomes of these. I also love the colors of the utensil handles. Those might stay with me. The corn mold matches one I bought at thrift store yesterday. I will save those for Corn Fest.
I can't wait to play with that desk and little cabinet! I wonder what they will turn into...
So these were my finds. Not bad for a Wednesday.

Thanks for visiting my blog! I just picked up the same cast iron corn cake pan a couple weeks ago at a garage sale. So fun! And I am totally intimidated by the "big dogs" at garage sales...not that I usually see them since I am not so dedicated to be there that early! : )
